Lots of interesting tie-ins in the metric system. Pure water is one of the standards in the metric system. A Metric tonne is the weight of a "cube" of water with the dimensions of 1M x 1M x 1M.


Actually it's not. A kilogram weighs just slightly less than a liter of water. 1 liter of water at 3.98 degrees C at sea level weighs 1.000028 kg.
